The World's 10 best airports

London's Heathrow Airport, the world's busiest international airport, was in the news this week for leaving passengers waiting for hours in long queues at border control, but the awards offered some good news for the beleaguered facility.

Heathrow's Terminal 5, opened in 2008, won the award for best airport terminal, while the airport also won the award for best shopping.

Another London airport, Stansted, won the award for best low-cost airport.
